No, if the phone is off, the text message will not be delivered. When a text message is sent through a network service, it must be received by the device in order for it to be marked as delivered. If the device is off or out of service, it will not receive the message and won’t be marked as delivered.
The best way to know if a message has been delivered is to check if the recipient has read the message. There may also be features available through your text message provider to confirm delivery.
What happens if someone texts you when your phone is off?
If someone texts you when your phone is off, the message will be stored on the sender’s phone until you turn your phone back on. As soon as you turn your phone on, the message will be sent to your device and you will receive a notification that you have a new text message.
Depending on the type of phone you have, you may also be able to receive text messages while your phone is off, though your phone must be connected a WiFi or Cellular network in order to do so.
How do I know if someone’s phone is off?
If someone’s phone is off, it will usually display an “Off” or “No Service” message on the home screen. Depending on the phone, the message may look slightly different. If the phone has a removable battery, it may display it on the inside of the battery compartment.
Additionally, the phone won’t make any noise or vibration when it’s turned off, so if someone calls or sends a text while the phone is off, you won’t hear or feel it. When you’re in range of the phone and it’s off, it won’t appear in your list of available devices, either.
Am I blocked or is their phone off?
It’s difficult to know for sure whether you are blocked or if the other person’s phone is off. A good indicator of whether you are blocked is to check if the messages you sent to the other person have been read.
If the other person normally reads and responds to your messages quickly and you have not received a response after several attempts, then it may be possible that you have been blocked. You can also attempt to call the other person to see if they answer.
If they do not, then it is possible that their phone is indeed off.
Why did my text messages turn from blue to green am I blocked?
The color of text messages in your messaging app typically indicates whether the message you sent has been seen or not. Blue messages typically mean that your message was sent, but not yet seen. Green messages indicate that the message you sent has been seen.
Therefore, if your messages turn from blue to green, this usually indicates that the person you are sending messages to has seen the text you sent.
It’s possible that you may have been blocked, but if this is the case, the other person will likely still receive your messages, they just won’t respond. If you’re unable to send a message that you know they haven’t seen yet, then they may have blocked you.
What does it sound like when you block a number?
When you block a number, you will no longer hear any incoming calls, messages, or other notifications from that contact. Depending on your cellular carrier, you may receive a message or sound indicating that the blocked number cannot get through.
This could be a specific sound (like a beeping noise) or an automated voice prompt instructing the caller that the number they are trying to reach is no longer in service.
In some cases, the blocked number may be able to leave a voicemail, but you won’t receive a notification or be able to listen to it. Also, some carriers may offer services that prevent the blocked number from knowing that their calls are being blocked.
If you block a number on your landline phone, you may hear a busy signal when the blocked caller tries to contact you, so it’s important to know what your provider offers when it comes to blocking calls.
Do messages go green when phone off?
No, messages do not go green (or appear as ‘read’) when your phone is off. When your phone is off and you receive a message, the sender may see that the message was delivered, but it will not appear as read or green until you have wi-fi or cellular connection, turn your phone on and read the message.
Why would an iMessage turn green?
An iMessage may turn green if the message you are sending is an SMS (Short Message Service) message instead of an iMessage. This could be because the person you are sending the message to has an Android phone, or if there is not an active internet connection.
When the bubble is green, this signifies that the message is being sent as a text message, not an iMessage. If you would like to send an iMessage, you should ensure you have an active internet connection so the bubble will be blue.
This can be done by connecting to a trusted Wi-Fi network or using your data plan to establish a connection.
What happens to iMessages when phone is turned off?
If the phone is turned off, any iMessages that were sent to the device will remain in the sender’s Messages app until the device is turned back on. The message will still be visible in the conversation and the sender will be able to view the status of their message in the conversation.
For example, it may be marked as “Delivered” if the device was turned off after the message was sent. Once the device is turned back on, the iMessage will be delivered to the device and the sender will see it marked as “Read”.
If the device is offline due to an issue with the phone or cellular network, the message will stay in the sender’s Messages app until the network connection is restored and the message can be delivered.
How can you tell if someone’s phone is off when texting?
If you text someone and do not receive a reply after a few minutes, there are a few ways you can tell if the person’s phone is off. For example, if the person’s name on your contact list says “Delivered” under the message but you haven’t received a reply, this likely means that the person either has their phone off or is out of cell phone range.
Additionally, you may be able to tell if someone’s phone is off if the message you sent them has stayed unread for an unusually long amount of time. While there could be other factors in play, such as an issue with their phone or an interrupted connection, these are usually rare cases.
Why does it say not delivered when I send a text?
First, the recipient’s cell phone may not be in service or may have a low battery and could not receive the message. Second, the recipient’s network service provider may be experiencing outages or other technical difficulties, preventing the message from being sent.
Additionally, the recipient’s device may not have enough storage, or the message may have been sent to the wrong phone number. Lastly, the message may have been blocked due to certain content or keywords, or the recipient may have already blocked the sender.
If you are still unable to send the message, it is recommended to call your network provider to ask if they can help resolve the issue.
Why are my texts appearing green?
When your text messages appear in green, it typically means that the message is being sent as an iMessage (as opposed to standard text messages [SMS], which appear in blue). If the message you are sending is to an iPhone user with an active data or Wi-Fi connection, then it will send as an iMessage.
This is because iMessages use the internet or Wi-Fi connection instead of your cellular network to send messages. The green color indicates that your message was sent as an iMessage rather than as an SMS, which appears in blue.
